The Mayor - Councillor Paul Burgess

It is a great honour for both myself and my wife Nicky to be
the Mayor and Mayoress of Teignmouth. We are very much looking forward to this
year and we will work hard to represent Teignmouth,

I aim to have a clear theme for my Mayoral year which I very much hope will create a lasting legacy after my 12 months as Mayor and will develop a platform for others to build upon. The theme will be “Helping others within your Community” and the challenge I am setting everyone in Teignmouth is to “donate 1 hour of their time”.

It is a tradition that during the Mayoral year the Mayor raises funds to help local Charites and keeping up with traditions I will also look to raise money for The Mayor's Charity Fund, The Helen Foundation and Alice Cross Centre.
